Two little flannel quilt tops for Project Linus


Two more little quilts for Project Linus!!  I have been working on and off on the first one and finished the top last week and then made up the grey/black and red one in fairly short order because it is all strips of fabric.  It took me most of the day yesterday but I did get both of them finished with batting, backers and binding.   I will be dropping them off to my sister's and she will drop them off with hers to the coordinator in her area.            Therese

Masterboard with collage images


I found a file folder full of collage images from a swap and was at the same time looking to do something different for my exchange cards.  After a perusal of a magazine from my collection I was reminded of masterboards which my friend, Linda, uses quite often. I decided to use the images in the file folder to recreate a masterboard.   I started with a colour printed cardstock poster from my serendipity box and just cut out images and glued them in place.  It is very much like serendipity except you are using images instead of scraps of paper.  A bit of a different look as well.  I used a few scraps of paper napkin as well which I found in my serendipity box to help create bridges in my collage.   The idea of a masterboard is that you scan it and then can print off copies for using in your art.  In my case, I have scanned it and I will be using the original for creating my exchange cards.
